Meet Your Trainer

    How is your canine communication? Desiree believes mis-communication between human and canine is the primary cause of most “bad behaviour”. Insight into a dog’s mind is a priceless lifetime lesson for any dog owner. I want to help you understand your dog, so your dog can understand you! A good trainer should help you form a stronger bond with your dog; to develop a relationship built on trust and respect.

Sucess Stories

    Each and every dog that has come through my training holds a special place in my heart. I have watched countless puppies grow up, old dogs get a new “leash on life”, rescues get happy new homes, and helped clients through tragedies of loss. I never give up on anyone and believe even the toughest dogs have room for improvement. With the right attitude, knowledge, patience and effort miracles can happen.
